Frank Orr reports that, "We are in the process of engaging both pre-service and in-service teachers in a project that is a state initiative involving the training protocols from START, action research, and environmental studies related to the major watersheds in the state of Georgia. The project in Georgia is called "Restoring Our Waters" or ROW, and is in the infancy or organizational stage at this point. The project will be very collaborative among the higher education institutions, business community, and schools districts throughout Georgia. We also are working with Southern Illinois and the river project curriculum developed at that institution."
